Have been trying to build a device template for my Rii mini i8 wireless keyboard. This is a brilliant little remote that works so well out of the box - can basically do everything required and I haven't charged the thing since I bought it so it hardly uses any battery.

Anyway, the reason I wanted to build a device template was to try to use the special "media" keys. There is a pause/play, skip forward/back, vol up, vol down and mute button that would be really useful when playing media. Of course I can use the UI2 on-screen gyro-type controls by using the touch-pad pointer but single-buttons are bit more controllable and would be great to be able to use them.

So I built the template according to some wiki instructions but it hasn't been auto-detected and added to my Orbiter yet. I used "lsusb" to get the vendor/id and put this in the pNp part of the template but still, nothing seems to be detected either on boot/reboot/reload or anything like that. Odd. Not at my machine at the moment, will post the template later as a screenshot, but I was wondering how to go about troubleshooting the plug and play detection. Is it the HAL device? Should I look through those logs or others?

Ha ha... I take it back, autodetect works.... sweet. I was looking in the wrong place. Silly tit... I was looking under the MD rather than under the onscreen orbiter in the device tree. Now to see if the media keys work.....
